Become part of STUV as a member of the Prototype Engineering team. You will work closely with the design and product management teams. During your three-month induction phase, we will familiarise you with the products, the market and its specific requirements. Your responsibilities will then include the independent production of prototype parts and small series, taking into account quality, cost and deadline specifications based on sketches, drawings and development specifications. It is important to record the evaluations of the sample construction in the form of documentation. As STUV continues to grow, new and challenging projects are constantly coming in. These are particularly prevalent in the areas of high security (justice, police, forensics) and the refrigeration industry. You will master these together in project teams.
